MADRID, Feb. 12, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Saab has introduced the Aerobahn Airport Dashboard to improve the distribution of critical airport status information, both airside and landside, to all stakeholders and the public. The Aerobahn Airport Dashboard provides a single point for the collection, recording, distribution, updating and alerting of airport status information for proactive management of airport operations.

The Aerobahn Airport Dashboard is a stand-alone product for the real-time information-sharing needs of an airport of any size. Users can post updates, attach documents, and draw attention to the status of any aspect of the airport. The Aerobahn Airport Dashboard is comprised of:

Single home screen that allows users to quickly view and edit critical airport status information, such as runway status, irregular operations status, NOTAMS, and landside information such as hotel and transportation conditions;

Notification bar for an up-to-date activity log of all airport status changes. Users can customize what data is shown and displayed to further focus on the most important details for their responsibility; and

Web portal that allows viewing of the Aerobahn Airport Dashboard from any web browser or mobile device for quick, on-the-go updates.

The Aerobahn Airport Dashboard is built on the proven Aerobahn platform that is the basis for a number of airport operations efficiency and collaboration products.

"To best manage resources across any airport, it's critical for all stakeholders to have immediate access to critical airport status data," said Marc Viggiano, chief executive officer of Saab Sensis. "Aerobahn Airport Dashboard collects, distributes and displays information that impacts multiple stakeholders in a concise, easy-to-use manner. This single screen facilitates better decision making, whether it's related to how a closed runway will affect operations or even the availability of nearby hotel rooms during irregular operations."

Aerobahn is the most widely deployed technology used by airports, airlines and air navigation service providers to actively improve the efficiency and collaboration at the airport.
